Waikite Valley Hotpools

Waikite Valley Hotpools, a swimming club located in Waikite Valley, invites you to dive into an unforgettable experience at our upcoming swimming event.

Immerse yourself in the 'Living Waters' of the renowned Te Manaroa Spring, which happens to be the largest single source of 100% pure geothermal water in all of New Zealand. Our thermal swimming pools, ranging from a toasty 30 °C to a rejuvenating 41 °C, are fed by this natural wonder. While the pools themselves are man-made, they are nestled in the midst of nature, creating a tranquil and serene setting for your aquatic adventures.

Whether you're seeking a moment of relaxation in our personal hot pools or looking forward to quality time with your loved ones, Waikite Valley has an abundance of pools to cater to everyone's needs. And that's not all – our facilities also include a 20-site campground. Featuring powered and non-powered sites, along with bathroom, kitchen, and laundry amenities, our campground provides the perfect base for your stay. As a camper, you'll have the added perk of free and unlimited access to the thermal pools throughout your visit. We even have a thermally-heated drying room for your convenience!

For those seeking year-round enjoyment, we offer 12-month season passes at a range of prices. Families, couples, and individuals can all take advantage of this opportunity, starting at just $160 for an individual pass and going up to $350 for a family pass (conditions apply).

While you're here, make the most of the great outdoors by exploring our Te Manaroa Spring Eco-Trail and paying a visit to the charming Pukeko in a Ponga Tree Cafe.

Waikite Valley Hotpools is open seven days a week, welcoming visitors from 8am onwards. Tickets can be conveniently purchased on arrival or pre-purchased online. Our hot pools are situated between Rotorua and Taupo, just off SH5, making us easily accessible to all.

So mark your calendars and get ready to make a splash at Waikite Valley Hotpools. We guarantee it will be an experience you won't want to miss!
